Hi this is one machine I`ve never had and would love to buy one.

Anyone have any thoughts etc about them.

Quiet ? Loud ? kind to film ??? Do they have the later usual elmo lens not the screw one.

Interested anyway even if no-one has one going.

Thanks Mark.

I have a 16-F with ELC lamp, but have never seen the 250 HL. Here is a pic of the 250 HL lamp.

Not an Elmo but have a look at the Hokushin I have posted. Very similar machine I believe. Anyway worth a look.
